Clinical research internship opportunities

14 February 2019

CCMC’s Gap Year internship program originated in 2014, and has grown steadily over the years based on the extraordinary feedback from past interns and the equally positive experience that clinical faculty have experienced while working with such bright, highly talented and motivated students.  Clinical research internship positions are now available in 4 different pediatric divisions – providing recent college graduates with an extraordinary opportunity to collaborate on clinical research and other academic endeavors.  

The following information about the Gap Year internship program in each of these 4 clinical areas:

·         Medical Genetics and Human Genomics

·         General Pediatrics

·         Pediatric Cardiology

·         Emergency Medicine

Students who are interested in collaborating on one or more clinical research projects – with opportunities for co-authorship on abstracts and papers – may apply for an internship position in any or all of these 4 sub-specialty areas. Attached is a common application for these internship programs.   Please note that the application deadline for all of the internships is Monday, March 4th.  Students are strongly encouraged to apply early.  Students will be notified of their application status within 4 weeks of the application deadline.
